The Sunderland Forum is all about local issues. The City of Sunderland obviously includes, Washington, Houghton and Hetton. However, we allow news, views and gossip from all areas surrounding Wearside.

This Thursday's vote is for the European elections (23rd May 2019).
You don't have to tell us which party you are voting for.
Just say whether you are voting for a Brexit Party, remain party or a neutral party (if any exist).

I've already stated elsewhere that I will be voting for the Brexit Party.
I would have voted UKIP if the Brexit Party never got off the ground but Nigel Farage knows how to do things properly.
It's important to get out of the EU so I am voting out.
